At least 12 genes (FH, HIF2A, MAX, NF1, RET, SDHA, SDHB, SDHC, SDHD, SDHAF2, TMEM127,andVHL) have been implicated in inherited predisposition to phaeochromocytoma (PCC), paraganglioma (PGL), or head and neck paraganglioma (HNPGL) and a germline mutation may be detected in more than 30% of cases. Knowledge of somatic mutations contributing to PCC/PGL/HNPGL pathogenesis has received less attention though mutations inHRAS, HIF2A, NF1, RET,andVHLhave been reported. To further elucidate the role of somatic mutation in PCC/PGL/HNPGL tumourigenesis, we employed a next generation sequencing strategy to analyse “mutation hotspots” in 50 human cancer genes. Mutations were identified forHRAS(c.37G>C; p.G13R and c.182A>G; p.Q61R) in 7.1% (6/85); forBRAF(c.1799T>A; p.V600E) in 1.2% (1/85) of tumours; and forTP53(c.1010G>A; p.R337H) in 2.35% (2/85) of cases. Twenty-one tumours harboured mutations in inherited PCC/PGL/HNPGL genes and noHRAS, BRAF, orTP53mutations occurred in this group. Combining our data with previous reports ofHRASmutations in PCC/PGL we find that the mean frequency ofHRAS/BRAFmutations in sporadic PCC/PGL is 8.9% (24/269) and in PCC/PGL with an inherited gene mutation 0% (0/148) suggesting thatHRAS/BRAFmutations and inherited PCC/PGL genes mutations might be mutually exclusive. We report the first evidence forBRAFmutations in the pathogenesis of PCC/PGL/HNPGL.

Severe Tetanus

Abstract We shared our successful treatment experience of a severe tetanus patient in China. A 50 year old male patient was admitted to our hospital 10 days after the right arm injury due to pain and masticatory weakness. The pathogen of wound secretion was confirmed to be clostridium tetanus by next-generation sequencing (NGS).The patient's condition rapidly progressed to a severe state with autonomic instability. After debridement and comprehensive treatment in ICU, including deep analgesia and sedation with dexmedetomidine, ventilator support and anti-infection treatment, the patient finally recovered and discharged. This case suggested that early diagnosis and reasonable intervention of severe tetanus could reduce mortality.

Recent achievements in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies lead to a high demand for reuseable software components to easily compile customized analysis workflows for big genomics data. We present ViennaNGS, an integrated collection of Perl modules focused on building efficient pipelines for NGS data processing. It comes with functionality for extracting and converting features from common NGS file formats, computation and evaluation of read mapping statistics, as well as normalization of RNA abundance. Moreover, ViennaNGS provides software components for identification and characterization of splice junctions from RNA-seq data, parsing and condensing sequence motif data, automated construction of Assembly and Track Hubs for the UCSC genome browser, as well as wrapper routines for a set of commonly used NGS command line tools.
